Twitter Lead Generation: Find People Asking for What You Sell

Get an alert when someone on X asks for a recommendation in your category. A search for buying phrases plus an AI filter that keeps only real requests.

By AyeWatch Team··3 min read

Short answer: people tweet "any recommendations for a CRM?" every day. Create an AyeWatch X search monitor for buying phrases in your category, add the filter "people asking which CRM to use", and reply while the thread is fresh. Here's the setup with CRM as the example.

Set it up

  1. Open Create a monitor → X. Keep Search.
  2. Query: ("any recommendations" OR "looking for") (CRM OR "sales tool") -filter:retweets. Swap in your category.
  3. In Only alert me about, describe a real lead: "people asking which CRM to use".
  4. Pick Hourly or a few times a day and click Create monitor.

Buying phrases plus your category, with a filter.

Buying phrases that work

  • "any recommendations", "can anyone recommend"
  • "looking for a", "need a tool"
  • "alternative to" YourCompetitor
  • YourCompetitor (expensive OR "switching from")

What you get

The first check saves the current posts as a starting point, so you are not flooded with old ones. After that, every check that finds something new sends one alert. The headline is the post itself, or "3 new from …" when several land at once, with a link to each post and its text.

Example AyeWatch alert in the web feed: a post asking for a CRM recommendation
